This FM/RDS-tuner especially was developed for mobile usage. It is connected to the PC by USB and 3.55mm Line-In/Mic-In. An antenna is included in scope of supply. The receiption quality can further be improved by connecting the device to an amplified antenna respectively by connecting it to a car antenna with help of an adapter (DIN ISO, FAKRA).

The receiver is shipped with software interfaces for Centrafuse (version 2.x,3.x and 4.x) and Radiator (thereby also adds support for InCar Terminal) which allows a very flexible usage.
